looks really nice Ray!!!

I am actully thinking.... everyone might be able to fit 25mm though... because our Z suspensions are really stiff... it is unlikely to rub the guards though... and also with extra 10mm on my, it will be even nicer!

I might be getting 25mm for the rear and move those 15mm to the front..... because the front studs are much shorter (15mm)...

btw... what is the offset for your wheels at the rear?
and do you have more pics showing the rear view of the car?

Thanks!!

cheers,

richie

Talking

nope. didn't rub anything at all.

the installer said that if i lower the car some more, that's when it'll start to rub the guards.

now, what do you mean by "hard turns"?

I was refering to some aggresive turnings at the corner to see if the rubber will be twisted and touch the wheel guards... that's what I meant.... and since that you said it wouldn't rub unless you lower the car, that means our Z suspension is really stiff!!!

That's what my installer told me as well.. therefore, I am going for a pair of 25mm for the rear (also for the emergency reason and the cosmetic look) and move those 15mm to the fronts....

cheers,

richie
ps. Emergency reason = if I happen to have a flat tyre *touch wood*, I will not be able to have my space saver on if those nuts used to secure those 15mm spacers sticking out... that's why I am moving onwards....

Cheers,
i got them from my performance shop, XSpeed, here in WA.

this is the last pair that they have, ordered from Japan.

i'm pretty sure you can find one locally, just ask around, even if they don't ask them to make one for you.

another way is to contact Z350Lover, an aussie member, as he have bought one locally, specially made for the Z.
